Labour’s National Policy Forum

Welcome to Labour’s National Policy Forum

National Policy Forum (NPF)

Welcome to Labour’s online home of policy development. 

2026 is the year that Britain gets back on track on the path to a decade of national renewal. 

The National Policy Forum plays a crucial role in the development of the Labour Party’s policy platform to support the Labour Government and build towards the next General Election. 

The current policy development cycle was launched in January 2025 following the 2024 General Election. We are now in the second year of that cycle. 

Our 2026 consultation runs from 5 March 2026 to 11 June 2026. We encourage members, affiliates, stakeholders and members of the public to get involved and submit their views. 

Kickstart economic growth
Make Britain a clean energy superpower
Break down barriers to opportunity
Build an NHS fit for the future
Safer streets
Britain reconnected
